How to manage sugarcane in the field

With the arrival of solar terms in beginning of winter, the sugarcane industry in Gengma County has gradually entered the technical maturity. Process maturity is the process of sugar accumulation in sugarcane stalks, and it is the key period to improve sugarcane yield and obtain higher sugar yield, including more than 40 days after sugar accumulation in sugarcane stalks reaches the required purity of sugarcane juice, which is of great significance in production. In order to obtain higher yield and sweetness, it is necessary to strengthen the management of sugarcane (orchard) in early winter.

First, control the soil moisture of sugarcane field (field)

In the early stage, the soil of sugarcane field (or field) remained "wet", but it could not accumulate water. Too much water in the field will make the stem buds at the base of sugarcane germinate and produce new buds, thus promoting the decrease of sucrose content; Keep the field "dry" 1 month before harvesting, without any irrigation, so as to promote the maturity of sugarcane.

The second is to prevent and control field fires caused by crisp autumn air.

Third, peel off old leaves and dead leaves in time about half a month before harvest, increase ventilation and light transmission between sugarcane rows, prevent lodging, promote maturity and facilitate cutting.

Fourth, pay attention to the harm of rats.

Sugarcane with high sugar content at maturity is easy to attract rats to bite, so it should be prevented in time. 80% diphacinone sodium salt powder+new high-fat film spraying sugarcane garden can be used to kill rats.

Fifth, do a good job of cutting and harvesting in time.

According to the maturity and planting period of varieties, the harvest time should be arranged reasonably to obtain the highest yield and sugar yield. Generally, early-maturing varieties are cut first, and then late-maturing varieties are cut; First arrange to plant autumn sugarcane and ratoon sugarcane, and then arrange to plant winter sugarcane and spring sugarcane. After the warm spring temperature rises, it is the most suitable sugarcane field for cutting root sugarcane overnight.
